ok, I've seen other chords tabs for this song, and they don't sound right to me. So,
the beginning tab (which you can find on other tabs which are good). These are the chords,
makes up the jist of the song. This Is My Favourite Band, So I'll Try My Best.
[Verse 1]
Keep you in th
e dark
You know they
all pretend
Keep you in th
e dark
And so it all
began
Play the chords at the same time as the bass drum beats.
Send in your s
keletons
Sing as their
bones come mar
ching in... ag
ain
They need you
buried deep
The secrets th
at you keep ar
e at the ready
Are you ready?
I'm finished m
aking sense
Done pleading
ignorance
That whole...
defense
(Now start strumming up & down normally)
Spinning infin
ity, boy
The wheel is s
pinning me
It's never-end
ing, never-end
ing
Same old story
[Chorus]
What if I say
I'm not like t
he others?
What if I say
I'm not just a
nother one of
your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say
I will never s
urrender?
What if I say
I'm not like t
he others?
What if I say
I'm not just a
nother one of
your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say
that I'll neve
r surrender?
(Go Back To Bass Drum Strumming)
[Verse 2]
In time or so
I'm told
I'm just anoth
er soul for sa
le... oh, well
(Normal Strumming)
The page is ou
t of print
We are not permanent
We're temporar
y, temporary
Same old story
[Chorus]
What if I say
I'm not like t
he others?
What if I say
I'm not just a
nother one of
your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say
I will never s
urrender?
What if I say
I'm not like t
he others?
What if I say
I'm not just a
nother one of
your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say
that I'll neve
r surrender?
[Verse 3]
I'm the voice
inside your he
ad
You refuse to hear
I'm the face t
hat you have t
o face
Mirrored in your stare
I'm what's lef
t, I'm what's
right
I'm the enemy
I'm the hand t
hat will take
you down
Bring you to your knees
So who are you
?
Yeah, who are
you?
Yeah, who are
you?
Yeah, who are
you?
Keep you in th
e dark
You know they
all pretend
[Chorus]
What if I say
I'm not like t
he others?
What if I say
I'm not just a
nother one of
your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say
I will never s
urrender?
What if I say
I'm not like t
he others?
What if I say
I'm not just a
nother one of
your plays
You're the pretender
What if I say
that I'll neve
r surrender?
What if I say
I'm not like t
he others?
(Keep you in the dark)
What if I say
I'm not just a
nother one of
your plays
(You know they all... pretend)
You're the pretender
What if I say
I will never s
urrender?
[Outro]
So who are you
?
Yeah, who are
you?
Yeah, who are
you?
